A Surprised Young Man.
An instance occurred last night at the
Sons of Veterans mask ball which re
minded many of such scenes as are
frequently revealed upon the sudden
reak of day which strikes a car load of
loye makers as they are rapidly pulled
from a tunnel. The actions may not
have been similar to that, but tho hot
lurning words which were poured from
one ear to another certainly corresponded
with thore let loose under 6uch circum-
stances. Ik-fore tho masks were lilted
many pleasing conversations occurred
between the young men and several supposed-to-be
ladies.
A young man who presents somewhat
of n female Texnression even when his
a.
countenanco is not hidden from view by
a mask, attired himself in a low-necked
dress, while a stylish hat partially cov
ered streaming golden tresses which
reached the waist of this much admired
beauty. By the aid of modern science,
the young man managed to build ad
ditions to himself which, when completed,
passed him off in the regular form. He
was sized up much by the young bloods
who remarked to themselves: "I wonder
who she is, I must not go home before
meetinT her and bavins a dance. She is
a beauy, and I believo she must be i
stranger for I do not renietr.be- ever see
ing that figure on any previous occasion.1
She danced with several of the young
men, and all were apparently mcch de
lighted with her company, her graceful
dancing, her charming figure and musicul
voice. One of the mashers danced with
this young ldy, and being an intimate
friend of the disguised, the great secret
was divulged to him, which suddenly
opened his eyes and he was about to
thump the deceiver when he was sudden
ly huslud up. The two made it up to
seure a ooint on a fellow thev had "had
it in for" for a short time.
The victim was secured and intro
duced to the young lady, and amorede-

with lihtnin changes. The play
is
really lyric spectacular, and is an ab-
iolutj success. The scenery is all new

seen-- in the last act representing Job's
vision, where the auditor is translated
from Ramshackle Cottage into a world
of clisi'olt ing beauty, in which legions
of cehtial beings are seen floating in the
air. The play is in five acts and the
